high-IQ, 6'2" freshman guard still waiting for his Citadel breakout
In the 2025-26 season, Jack Walter was a redshirt freshman guard at The Citadel, listed at 6'2" and 190 pounds, with only brief early-season action and no major stat footprint yet[1][2][3]. What stands out is the long-view upside: he arrives from IMG Academy, has been praised for defense and improvement in high school, and also carried a 4.0 GPA, which usually signals a disciplined, coachable guard who should buy into structure fast[8]. If you want a ready-made creator, the box score says “not yet”; if you want a smart, sturdy developmental guard with potential two-way value, he’s at least worth a closer look[1][2][8].
